Another doctor is in the news for his run-in with nature, but this time the story has a much better ending. Florida based doctor, Sam Gerson was doing some deep sea fishing of the coast of Florida and managed to haul in an unexpected surprise. Gerson was lucky enough to hook a 50-year old, 300-pound goliath grouper.
“I dropped my line in and within seconds of hitting bottom, I felt a strong jerk. As I started reeling in, the rod bent until the tip was almost in the water. Soon I wasn’t reeling, but instead holding on for dear life as line was running out of the spool at an alarming speed,” Gerson told The Huffington Post.
Gerson and pals decided to name the fish “Dinosaur,” and took a photo of the doctor swimming alongside the fish in the ocean before they set it free.
